Ok so this is an android that is set in an Alternate Universe Dreadzone. In this universe Vox fled in the middle of the fight between him and Ratchet and attempted to kill him by blowing up the station once he was at a safe distance. But of course Clank saved him in the nick of time. After that Vox spent years rebuilding dreadzone and staying under the radar so the Solana defense force wouldn't find him and convict him for his crimes. But during the events of ITN Vox finally announces the newest version of his old beloved show Dreadzone now that the Solana law enforcement has finally forgotten about him and the events of the original Dreadzone were only a foggy memory.

Thane was commissioned by Vox to be one of the more important stars of the show. A pretty face, combined with high quality engineering, and a false backstory to garner sympathy, this lombax/cazar hybrid android was built to be a crowd favorite. That and be something Vox felt he could actually control unlike Ratchet. However, Vox made the major mistake of keeping Thane's real origins from him and instead having him believe the sob story Vox news pedals out for him. This will lead to some major chaos later. Also I apologize for my mediocre armor designing I promise I will get better.
